Markets have always been irrational to some extent. See Tulip Bulb Crash.

It does seem to me that right now its the most irrational I've ever seen.

Because of that speculators have done really well... many of them haven't been through a real crash. They'll be the first ones to bail in the inevitable next crash, according to history.

Most of them don't even know what value investing is. They're all momentum speculators.

I started investing too late to really make money in it and learned the key to it the hard way Make sure you aren't forced into selling at the wrong time. If you can hold through downturns and buy companies who actually make money you're pretty much guaranteed to win long term. Nobody can time the markets. Even science fiction writers and film makers get predicting the future way WAY wrong.

But the best thing historically to buy first is a home. Hard to lose on that long term. Ya gotta live somewhere.
